He took his seat at the table and looked at Judge Schwartz with the forthright, confident air of a man who feels he has nothing to apologize for. His wife was a buxom white-haired woman wearing a black dress tricked out with ruffles and rhine- stone buttons, a hat with a large feather, and many silver bracelets.

They had been married for two years; it was his first marriage and her second. Judge Schwartz asked Mrs. Rob- erts to tell her what had happened on the night in question.
